about

Animated by the drive and tradition of Klezmer music, Unorthodox (2020) explores the emotional distance between our raw, grungy real selves and the simple, polite version that we generally show the world. More metaphorically: what happens when a woman unzips her dress in order to breathe? The title is inspired by the book by Deborah Feldman (and the Emmy-nominated Netflix show starring Shira Haas) about a young woman who leaves a very strict Hasidic sect.

Unorthodox premiered in a video version at the Gershman Jewish Film Festival on November 17, 2020 in Philadelphia and was subsequently screened at Detroit Dance and the Istanbul Fringe Festival. Following the lifting of pandemic restrictions, Unorthodox returned in 2021 as a centerpiece of ARD’s fourteenth season of live performances.

I rearranged it for the Oregon-based Orchid Trio for tape with live strings, and Unorthodox Redux (2021) made its radio debut on NPR.
